Consumer Guide Reviews:

Marc Cohn [Atlantic, 1991]
Cohn sings like a sentimental Warren Zevon--an exclusively sentimental Warren Zevon, I mean. He's got some tunes. But his lyrics are sticky with decaying Americana, and he shows no grasp of his limitations. A folkie with a piano is dreaming concert hall--a level of signification higher than folkie talent generally reaches. C+
